Cybersecurity auditor performing VAPT across web, APIs, and networks—turning scan findings into CVSS-rated reports.
What I'm looking for
I run vulnerability assessments and penetration testing (VAPT) across web applications, APIs, and networks at Digital Age Strategies Pvt Ltd, validating findings with manual checks to reduce false positives.
I use Nessus, Burp Suite, Nmap, OWASP ZAP, Postman, and Kali Linux to test authentication flows, authorization, insecure endpoints, and data exposure, and to trace exploitation paths with black-box and gray-box methods.
I build security audit documentation for government projects, reviewing controls and evidence and mapping remediation tracking to ISO 27001, with reports that include risk ratings, proof of concept, and executive summaries.
Before that, I developed a full-stack web application at Manipal Technologies Limited using Spring Boot, React.js, and MySQL, and I also built a Python file encryption/decryption tool using AES-256-style symmetric encryption concepts.
